Pages isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game versus Arizona.

After going 0-for-3 during Friday's series opener, Pages will grab a seat on the bench while Yohel Pozo catches for left-handed starter Matthew Liberatore.

Carroll isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Cardinals, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

Carroll isn't typically one to sit down against left-handed starters, but he'll be on the bench for Saturday's matchup against southpaw Matthew Liberatore. Lourdes Gurriel, Tim Tawa and Randal Grichuk will start across the outfield while Carroll rests.

Lile went 1-for-2 in Friday's loss to the Giants.

Making his big-league debut, Lile got the start in right field and batted ninth, and the 22-year-old wasted little time collecting his first hit in the majors as he smacked the first pitch he saw from Landen Roupp for a single. Lile could be set to operate on the strong side of a platoon with Alex Call in the short term -- Call pinch hit for him in the eighth inning against southpaw Erik Miller -- but the rookie will likely head back to Triple-A Rochester once one of Dylan Crews (oblique) or Jacob Young (shoulder) get healthy.

Eldridge is slashing .304/.379/.533 with 15 RBI, 12 runs scored, six doubles, five home runs and a 27.2 percent strikeout rate across 103 plate appearances for Double-A Richmond this season.

Eldridge is in the midst of a four-game hitting streak and has notched at least one hit in 15 of his 19 appearances this month. The 20-year-old first baseman has been productive in May, slashing .338/.397/.577 with 12 RBI, nine runs scored, four homers and a 23.1 percent strikeout rate. The 16th overall pick in the 2023 First-Year Player Draft, Eldridge could soon make a case for a promotion to Triple-A Sacramento, where he finished the 2024 campaign.

Perez (elbow) gave up two runs on three hits and three walks over 3.1 innings in his first rehab start for Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday. He struck out seven.

The strikeouts were impressive, but Perez threw only 37 of 61 pitches for strikes as he completes the final stages of his recovery from Tommy John surgery. The 22-year-old right-hander might only need a couple more outings on his rehab stint before joining the Marlins' rotation in early June and making his first big-league start since Sept. 20, 2023.

The Rangers traded Ornelas to Atlanta on Saturday in exchange for cash.

Ornelas was removed from Texas' 40-man roster Monday to make room for Michael Helman, but the former will now reclaim a 40-man spot upon moving to Atlanta. Ornelas, 24, has spent most of the season in Triple-A, slashing .204/.339/.235 across 121 plate appearances. He figures to remain in the minors with his new organization.

Woodruff (ankle/shoulder) struck out two and gave up three hits and two walks over four scoreless innings in a rehab start Wednesday with Triple-A Nashville.

Woodruff appeared to have reached the finish line in his recovery from October 2023 capsule surgery on his right shoulder earlier this month after he made the sixth start of his rehab assignment, but he experienced right ankle tendinitis coming out of that outing. The minor injury prompted the Brewers to shut him down for a brief period of time, but after Woodruff threw some simulated innings out of the bullpen last weekend without incident, he was cleared to begin a second rehab assignment. He'll have another 30-day period in the minors to conduct his rehab, but given the brevity of his recent shutdown along with the fact that he tossed 59 pitches Wednesday, Woodruff isn't expected to need that full window to get stretched back out. Woodruff is in line to make at least one more start in the minors, but if he's able to push up his pitch count and escape that outing with no setbacks to his ankle or shoulder, he could be activated from the 15-day injured list in the first week of June.

Harris went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Friday's loss to the Padres.

The center fielder has steals in back-to-back games and is up to nine on the season in 11 attempts through 50 contests. It's a big improvement on 2024, when he went 10-for-16 on SB attempts in 110 games, but the rest of Harris' offensive performance continues to lag, as he's slashing just .225/.259/.340 with three homers, 12 runs and 29 RBI.

Lee went 2-for-3 with two runs scored and a walk in Friday's 4-0 win over the Nationals.

Lee accounted for half of San Francisco's runs, recording at least one hit for the fourth straight game Friday. The 26-year-old outfielder also notched his third multi-hit performance over his last 10 games, during which he has slashed .268/.318/.488 with seven RBI, four runs scored, three doubles, two homers and a 3:6 BB:K across 44 plate appearances. While Lee struggled at the beginning of May, he now holds a .282/.330/.467 slash line with 32 runs scored, 31 RBI, 22 extra-base hits -- including six homers -- and three stolen bases across 212 plate appearances this season. Additionally, he has made consistent contact and owns a team-best 12.7 percent strikeout rate.

Roupp (3-3) earned the win Friday against the Nationals, giving up five hits and two walks while striking out two batters across six shutout innings.

The Nationals couldn't get a runner past second base against Roupp, who did a great job keeping Washington quiet while inducing a healthy amount of groundouts. After pitching 12 consecutive scoreless frames over his last two starts, the 26-year-old righty has lowered his ERA from 4.73 to 3.63, though he'll surely be tested during his next outing against a Tigers offense that has scored the fourth-most runs in the majors this year (268).
